Origins

Origins is a two week mini-series on Genesis 1-2:4a. There are several interpretations of the Genesis creation account, many of which are based on faithful exegetical investigation. However, we will seek to recover an interpretation lost in our modern context, but most likely understood by ancient Near Eastern readers at that time. In our recovery of this understanding, we hope to show that not only does it offer the most natural reading of the hebrew, but many long-standing objections and apparent textual conflicts disappear. In so doing, the origin of creation takes on a new and beautiful dimension relating to the Sinai Covenant as the central theme of the Pentateuch.
So what really happened in the beginning? Listen in and find out.
